***The Malik Scott v Glazkov Build-Up & Discussion Thread!!***

Fights are won by throwing more than a jab

 

You're preaching mastery of a single tactic/style (using the jab to set up combos) as the only way to achieve victory in boxing. That isn't the case.

 

Thats it!
Jab is just not enough! Maybe you can win on points against Rugby players like Tupou but not against strong Heavyweights! Thats all I wanted to say!
Scott really has to do more against Glazkov!
See you later folks I have to do some work here!:hi:

 

Maybe it is not the single way but it is the most common!
Every trainer will say you that the main task of a jab is to 1. confuse and 2. start combinations! At least here in old germany!
As I said Jab Jab Jab wont be enough against somebody like Glazkov in my opinion.

 

So German style is the only way?

Things got hairy the last time such a doctrine was touted. :err

 

Malik a G. **** the haters. Malik too wavy for these white boys.

 

Also, Scott doesn't just throw jabs exclusively all night. I never said he did. Even against punchers he'll mix in a sprinkling of different attacks. Tupou for instance probably ate more full 1-2's than lone jabs.

Glazkov doesn't just throw jabs, either. Far from it.

Based on their respective styles, however, I think this is a contest that will be decided based on which of them can gain the upper hand with their jab. It is a common strength, and it's very easy to see where this could veer into a tactical jab-and-move exercise.

 

I did not say this!
I dont understand whats the deal here.... I just said what the task of a jab is (confuse, start combinations and score). And that just throwing jabs is mostly not enough to win a close fight! Cant be so different in the USA I think.
As I said if Scott relies only in his Jab it wont be enough in my opinion. Of course he throws more than a jab but mostly it is nothing with a lot of power and he does it not frequently enough (again in my opinion).

Maybe zxcvbnm is right and Scott only does what he needs to do.... when he can improve from his last perfomances he can win this fight if not he will lose!

 

Of course it is important that your own jab is the forcing jab in a fight. I only said that just throwing jabs wont be enough for Scott. Glazkov fights just the way I said... uses his jab to confuse and starts combinations after it! Sometimes I think Scott only throws his jab because he wants to score and he wants to get a safe victory on the cards.

 

I don't wanna sound like a hater, but that is just...so wrong. 35 wins mean nothing by themselves.

 

Where is the option for Scott by knockout? :cus

 

What I have seen of Glazkov is fairly limited to be honest. Just a few fights. For anybody who has followed his career more closely, does he cut easily or no?

 

Nah.
